  - 'From anthropogenic litter carried by ocean currents to plant stems travelling
    through the atmosphere, geophysical flows are often seeded with elongated, fibre-like
    particles. In this study, we used a large-scale laboratory model of a tidal current
    – representative of a widespread class of geophysical flows – to investigate the
    tumbling motion of long, slender and floating fibres in the complex turbulence
    generated by flow interactions with a tidal inlet. Despite the non-stationary,
    non-homogeneous and anisotropic nature of this turbulence, we find that long fibres
    statistically rotate at the same frequency as eddies of similar size, a phenomenon
    called scale selection, which is known to occur in ideal turbulence. Furthermore,
    we report that the signal of the instantaneous transverse velocity difference
    between the fibre ends changes significantly from the signal produced by the flow
    in the fibre surroundings, although the two are statistically equivalent. These
    observations have twofold implications. On the one hand, they confirm the reliability
    of using the end-to-end velocity signal of rigid fibres to probe the two-point
    transverse statistics of the flow, even under realistic conditions: oceanographers
    could exploit this observation to measure transverse velocity differences through
    elongated floats in the field, where superdiffusion complicates collecting sufficient
    data to probe two-point turbulence statistics at a fixed separation effectively.
    On the other hand, by addressing the dynamics of inertial range particles floating
    in the coastal zone, these observations are crucial to improving our ability to
    predict the fate of meso- and macro-litter, a size class that is currently understudied.@eng'
